How Much Can You Love Your Local Restaurant?

I am in love with the food at Buck's Fishing and Camping, a NW DC restaurant. Chef Carole Greenwood cooks up the best food in the city, focusing on local ingredients and I just cannot praise the food enough.

But do not ask for a substitution. There is an element of fear here. Everyone in my neighborhood knows the drill of the food Nazi coming out to the table and screaming to regulars who had been going there for years and were trying to show the place off to newcomers, "If you don't like how the steak is cooked I will give it to my dog!" Carole does not have a dog. But she does have a bark.

The low of lows was last week when I was eating at the bar and Carole came out screaming to the wait staff: You fucking bitches!

Anyway, I thought I would pass on my favorite eccentric DC great food haunt to you.
